This Week's Free Game At Epic Is Live Now
The Epic Games Store gives away free games each week; this week you can claim Sunless Sea.
The Epic Games Store's free games program has been running for more than two years now, and Epic just announced that the program will continue through 2021. Every Thursday at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, Epic offers up one, two, or occasionally three free games. You merely need to create a free Epic account and enable two-factor authentication to start snagging freebies. At this point, Epic has given away well over 100 free games, and there's no sign that the program will stop any time soon. We keep this article up to date weekly to highlight both the current free games and next week's offerings.
This week's free games at Epic

From now until March 4 at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, you can claim Sunless Sea, a unique survival exploration game from Failbetter Games. In Sunless Sea, you captain a ship across murky, dangerous waters. Sunless Sea is set in the same world as Failbetter's adventure title Fallen London. It features roguelike elements, including randomized locations and permadeath, which makes each run unique.
Next week's free games at Epic

Epic regularly reveals the freebies you have to look forward to a week in advance, and starting March 4, you can claim Wargame: Red Dragon, a great real-time strategy game that originally released in 2014. Featuring a large number of armies, a dynamic campaign, and strategic conflicts across land, air, and sea, Wargame: Red Dragon is one of the better military RTS games out there.
Epic Games Store free games list
We're keeping a running list of every free game that Epic users have been able to claim in the past. From AAA hits to indie darlings, Epic has really made its mark with free games. You can even snag these games if you don't have a powerful PC so you can play them if you ever get one. Look at the list below to see the frankly ridiculous list of free games that have been available.
